503foundis one of my favorite, go-to shops for
home furnishings and accessories. They offer unique décor made by artisans from
all over the world and here locally in Orange County. It's also fun that they
incorporate vintage finds to their store, which I love. Interior design
services, large and small, are also offered at503foundto help you create an eclectic, timeless, and
functional home.

I was so happy to interviewKim Rodosky, one of the
founders and talented designers of503found. I
am so impressed that this mother ofsixcan pull together a gorgeous home for
her own family and also run a successful business. Here are some of her
insights for creating a gorgeous home.

1. What's an unexpected place to display
one-of-a-kind, personal finds?

“I think a unique, unexpected place to display one-of-a-kind,
personal finds would be in the guest bathroom. You always have people
coming in and out and no one really expects to see anything unique in a
bathroom. Very unexpected! “

2. Do
you have suggestions for filling vacant wall space?

“I always recommend filling with art and family photos. I love blending the
two to make a gallery wall. Art, mirrors, family photos - you can take up a lot
of wall space with those elements.”

3. My
favorite vintage scores are ...

“Art! I've found amazing vintage art pieces
scouring finds for 503found. They are usually really affordable and are some of my most treasured pieces.

There's a house that lives in my
dreams. It is a very large house with
elegant Victorian details, secret rooms that have been long forgotten and an abandoned,
untouched aura about the rooms. It is
located in my hometown, a hilltop in Italy or a misty parish somewhere in England,
I’m not sure. The location is always different but the house is the same.

It’s Black
Friday. No Shopping for me today. My
family and I love to just hang out, take it easy and munch on all the yummy
Thanksgiving leftovers. This year, the folks at Oroweat asked me to make my version of
the ultimate turkey sandwich using their Oroweat Organic Sandwich Bread. Anyone who knows me knows
I generally buy organic food and that I love all
the Thanksgiving dinner menu items, so it seemed like the perfect challenge for
me. Made with organic ingredients and whole grains, NEW Oroweat Organic breads are the
delicious way to feel better about eating better.

Here’s how I
created our family’s favorite sandwich, the Bacon Guacamole Turkey Sandwich, or
the “BGT”, haha!

I started by lightly
toasting the Organic

Oroweat Grains and Seeds sandwich bread.

Found in my local grocery store.

I cooked my bacon and let it crisp up on a paper towel.

I like using guacamole for this sandwich

because
it has the creaminess of

the
avocado with the added flavor of

the
tomato, onion and cilantro.

Recipe for “Martha’s Guacamole” is found below.

I start with slathering the guacamole on the first piece of bread.

Next I added the bacon

Then I layered thick slices of our Thanksgiving turkey.

{White meat only for me!}

Just a touch of mayo and black pepper.

And that’s it!

Martha Stewart’s Guacamole

· 2
ripe avocados, peeled, pitted, and lightly mashed

· 1/2
cup minced onion

· 1
jalapeno chile, minced (remove seeds and ribs for less heat)

· 1
plum tomato, seeded and diced

· 1/4
cup chopped cilantro

· 2
to 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice

· Coarse
salt

In a bowl, combine
avocados, onion, jalapeno, tomato, cilantro, and lime juice. Season with salt,
and mix to combine. (If you make the guacamole several hours ahead, keep
it in the refrigerator. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, pressing the plastic
directly onto the surface of the guacamole to prevent discoloration.)

Then I went out to my garden and cut a few springs of fuzzy asparagus
fern. They’ve got a beautiful bright
green color. I wanted to offset the
brightness of the fern and the tulips with a little gray from my English lavender.
Then I simply stripped the lower leaves of the fern and lavender to put in my
little glasses.
